The job of account payable clerk is just like that of the other clerks in the company. However to be selected you will have to pass various hurdles and interview is the most important part of the selection procedure. And believe me that it is not too easy to clear the interview. You will have to prepare very hard to clear the interview round. The interview round becomes even more difficult due to the fact that it is the first interaction between the recruiter and the job seekers.
I am now going to list some of the interview questions which are frequently being asked from the account payable clerk. They are as follows:
1. Tell us about yourself ?
My name is XYZ and I am an ABC. My fathers name is XYZ and he is a XYZ. I have been in this field for 3 years. This is a simple and straightforward answer to this question. However I warn you to not get indulged in long answers. If you will do that then the recruiter will definitely catch you and you will be thrown out without being selected.
2. What was your job profile in the previous company ?
This is another question which can be asked from you. However in order to answer to this question you will have to be quite polite. The question is that if you did the job well in the previous company then you must know the job profile in detail and hence you can recite it easily.
3. How many types of bills are there ?
This is the question from your field. Just recite all the types of bills and then stop. I warn you that you should use the professional words. If you will use layman words then you will make the recruiters confused. And believe me that once the recruiter will get confused then he will do nothing but just make you pay for it. So feel free and just give the names of all the bills which you have studied during the graduation or you have come across during the previous job. But you need to know everything about its.
4. What is an invoice ?
This is also a subject question and just gives a brief answer according to your experience in previous job.
5. What will you do for the company if you are hired ?
Just give the innovative answers. You will have to think first and then answer. You can say that I will use all of my skills to maximum limit for the benefit of the company.
These are some of the questions which you can be asked while giving the interview of the account payable clerk.
